Property Description
tep into a piece of Newton's history with this iconic 8,067 sq. ft. mixed-use building, originally gifted to the Salvation Army by Fred L. Maytag in 1928. Known for decades as the Salvation Army Citadel, this property has long served as a community landmark hosting events, supporting local programs, and acting as a cultural gathering space. Today, it stands ready for its next chapter.
Located just off the courthouse square, this property features a new roof, new water heater, some newer windows, and a 2-car detached garage, offering a strong foundation for redevelopment. The main level provides expansive space ideal for commercial, retail, studio, office, or event use.
The second floor offers nearly 4,000 sq. ft. of framed-in living potential, originally planned for 4+ bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a large living/entertainment area, and a future rooftop deck—perfect for a luxury loft, rental units, or an owner-occupied live/work concept.
Situated within the Newton Main Street district, buyers may have opportunities to explore local revitalization grants and incentives. Whether you're seeking a mixed-use investment, a commercial hub, or a unique redevelopment project, this historic property offers unmatched character and endless possibilities.
